Legacy Media is Frustrating
First and foremost, you should regard this as an opinion piece, and not one from any expertise background, because I’m far from one. I generally have no interest in politics, and I find it both boring and mind-numbing to think about and try to decipher (because deciphering is needed when it comes to politics... nothing is clear cut). But seeing the coverage of the recent attack on Israel and the aftermath in mainstream media, frustration and anger were building up inside and I had to let it out.

The Death of Adrianna Hutto
Adrianna Elaine Hutto was born on September 16, 1999. She was a beautiful little girl with a big smile, and she was spunky, but she was later diagnosed with ADHD (Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) which made her super hyper, so hyper that it tended to drive her mother almost insane. Adrianna had a little brother, AJ Hutto, who would eventually witness an act so atrocious, he would end up testifying in court for it.

Why aLIEliens Don't Actually Exist and Why the Government Wants Us to Believe They Do. Content Warning.
The idea of aLIEns has captured the human imagination for centuries. From ancient myths and legends to modern science fiction, we have always been fascinated by the possibility of life beyond Earth. However, there is no scientific evidence to support the existence of aliens. In fact, there are many reasons to believe that aliens don't actually exist.

In answer to: Israel isn’t targeting civilians and celebrating it
In response to a comment I got that Israel was the lesser evil due to the fact that they 'didn't target civilians and celebrate it', I wanted to write a fact-based response, sourced with 38 Western and Israeli sources to show that this is not the case. This is not a commentary on my personal beliefs. These are facts to point out that 1- Israel does, in fact, target civilians and 2- commits war crimes and has historically done so.

Unearthly Mysteries: Journey to the Center of the Earth. Content Warning.
Since our elementary school days, we've all gazed upon that iconic chart depicting the Earth's various layers. Yet, as we mature, we come to realize that perhaps this chart doesn't tell the whole story. In a world where the secrets of our own planet remain largely undiscovered, one can't help but ponder: why are we so eager to explore outer space while leaving the mysteries of our own world untouched? It's a bit like living in a one-bedroom apartment in New York City, overcrowding it, and then deciding it's time to move on. But before we hitch up the cosmic U-Haul, let's delve into what we know about the Earth's interior.

Title: The Year 536: A Tale of Unprecedented Calamity and Resilience
Once upon a time, there was a year that stood out as the paramount epitome of wretchedness. It was a year so bleak, so saturated with darkness and despair, that even historians and scientists concurred, labeling it the undisputed worst year in history. This infamous year, surprisingly, was not 2020; rather, it was the year 536, according to medieval historians. This marked the inception of an extraordinarily arduous period for humanity, and here's the tale.

Within Christian circles, there is a divergence of opinion when it comes to the conflict, with some steadfastly supporting Israel's actions as a means of defending the land they believe God has bequeathed to them, while others are deeply troubled by the loss of innocent lives in Gaza and the strong backing Israel receives from the United States.

Echoes of Resilience: Stories from the Past
In the quiet corner of a small, dusty town, nestled deep in the heart of the American Midwest, there stood an old, weather-beaten library. The building, with its creaky wooden floors and shelves lined with ancient books, was a haven for those who sought the solace of history's whispers. The library was known by many names: The Timeless Archive, The Sanctuary of Stories, but to the locals, it was simply "The Echoes."
